About The Punisher
Driven by a hatred of crime bordering
on insanity, Frank Castle became The
Punisher, a one-man army whose mission
goes far beyond revenge. Taking on the
city's high-powered crime lords, he
wreaks havoc on the corrupt with methods
reserved for those on the wrong side
of the law. The Punisher video game
represents the best of over 30 years
of Punisher comic books and depicts
some of the grittiest storylines in
the Marvel Universe.
The Punisher film starring Thomas Jane,
John Travolta and Rebecca Romijn-Stamos
is a production of Marvel Studios and
Artisan Entertainment and will hit theatres
this April.
